Yawn. "Morning."

"Morning! I did the family tree." 

"Oh! Thank you -" She holds out a hand.

Lucy tears a page out of her notebook and hands it to her. 

"Okay, this makes it a lot clearer, thank you."

"You're welcome!" 

When Xander's up Isabella gives him the family tree.

"Well this sure does raise some questions but it answers others, so thanks."

"What questions does this raise that weren't raised already?"

"I guess they were kind of raised already? But I was having kind of a hard time figuring out who exactly boinked a star so now they are more specific."

Giggle. "Oh, I see. I'm afraid that's the kind of question I have been aggressively disinterested in asking." 

"You know what, that's super fair."

"Anyway. Breakfast. --Isabella, how do you feel about going back to the store to pick up some sewing stuff after breakfast, I can experiment with adding Correspondence magic to fabric and give my hands something to do while I read." 

"I'm game." Breakfast! Store!

Store! Lucy acquire some cheap white muslin and black embroidery thread. 

"Okay, this will do just fine. It's mostly not what there is at home but it doesn't need to be." 

"If you can achieve precise enough sigils with embroidery I'm more optimistic about being able to get it right if something important turns out to be embroiderable."

"Was it not obvious that the sigils on my current dress are embroidered? I know white-on-white isn't the most striking, but..."

"I haven't been looking very closely!"

"How else do you put designs on fabric? --I guess it could be a brocade. That sounds harder to do all in white, but not impossible, hm." 

"Dye?"

"Yeah, you could have printed them, or they could be like, a different nap, or they could have been beads."

"Beads makes sense although I think it probably would have been more obvious, I'm really not sure how to do white-on-white dye but it sounds possible,what do you mean by printing? Like...putting fabric in a printing press?"

"It's just a way to apply dye. I'm not actually sure how they do it because I was mostly learning about clothes wanting to be a magical girl stylist and they don't have to conventionally produce clothes."

"Ooh. I'd have to experiment with that, but if applying dye with a printing stamp is something that works, even if you can't learn to make sigils exactly right, I could maybe create a stamp that you could safely use." 

"Oooh!"
